Supreme of the Heavenly Realm-Chapter 782 - 776: The Army’s Target - Emperor Xi Sect

The location of the Emperor Xi Sect lay on the southern side of the Central Domain, within the ancient mountain range of the Ancient Emperor Sect. This place was once home to an old Sect, the Ancient Emperor Sect, but it had fallen into decline over a thousand years ago, and the Emperor Xi Sect had risen in its place.

The Emperor Xi Sect’s sphere of influence extended across a hundred thousand li around these ancient mountains.

And the Emperor Xi Sect, surrounding these mountains, had always enjoyed an extremely high reputation. At least in this vicinity, there was no one who did not know about the Emperor Xi Sect.

At this moment, deep within the Emperor Xi Sect, two figures were present within a prohibited magical space.

One was a man in fluttering white clothes, unmistakably Yuxiaozi, while the other was an old man with white hair, exuding a somewhat ethereal and wise presence.

"Supreme Elder, I’m sure you are aware of the incident at Martial God Mountain. Not only did Huo Yuan and Zhai Tian perish at his hands, but even I failed to subdue him. If that Ye Xuan is not eliminated, he will become a great bane to our Emperor Xi Sect in the future,"

Yuxiaozi said, narrowing his eyes.

"It was originally a grudge between the juniors, and there was no need for you to take action personally. Even if you had to make a move, it shouldn’t have been so overt. But now that you have acted, it changes the nature of things."

The white-haired elder spoke without expression, and then a cold glint flashed in his eyes, "This disaster must be eradicated; otherwise, our Emperor Xi Sect will eventually meet with a great calamity."

"Do you have any brilliant plans, Supreme Elder?"

A hint of joy appeared in Yuxiaozi’s eyes. If the other party took action, then the chance of dealing with Ye Xuan was very high.

"What brilliant plan could there be? We can only wait for an opportunity. The Demon Clan is starting to emerge on the Spirit Martial Continent, so peace won’t last long. There will definitely be an opportunity. We can even push the blame onto the Demon Clan, making it completely unrelated to us," the white-haired elder said with a corner of his mouth curving into a smile.

"Brilliant."

Yuxiaozi couldn’t help but grin. He did not doubt whether they could put Ye Xuan to death and frame him successfully; after all, Ye Xuan was only one person, while they would mobilize the entire force of the Emperor Xi Sect against him. As long as the latter left the Heavenly Martial Holy Land, Yuxiaozi was confident he could bring Ye Xuan down.

"Little beast, do you think you can escape from my grasp?"

Yuxiaozi’s palm clenched tightly, and a sinister murderous intent flashed through his eyes. If before he wanted to kill Ye Xuan for Huo Yuan and Zhai Tian, now he pure and simply desired to kill Ye Xuan himself, as the latter had made him lose face beneath Martial God Mountain, and his potential had startled even Yuxiaozi.

Buzz, buzz.

Suddenly, the space around them trembled, and a series of distorted runes began to appear.

A crack sprang forth from the depths of the space.

"Hm? Someone is tearing apart the prohibition."

The white-haired elder’s face changed, and he immediately stood up, his gaze landing on the spatial crack.

"Sect Master, Supreme Elder!"

At this instant, an Elder from the Emperor Xi Sect burst in from outside, his face full of panic, "It’s not good, a large group of the Demon Clan is attacking our Sect Protection Array!"

"What?"

Both the white-haired elder and Yuxiaozi’s expressions changed almost simultaneously, greatly shaken.

"Why would the Demon Clan attack us? We have no grievances or enmity with them."

Yuxiaozi’s face turned ugly, and then he found it hard to believe. Why would the Demon Clan strike at his Emperor Xi Sect?

He did not know that this was the result of the loose ends left by Sound Saint and Ling Yu Saint, which had cast the Emperor Xi Sect in Shen Luo’s sights. And even if Shen Luo had not set its sights on the Emperor Xi Sect, Ye Xuan would have made Shen Luo turn its attention to them.

So to be precise, the Emperor Xi Sect could not escape its fate this time.

"Quick, go organize the disciples to mount a defense."

The white-haired elder waved his hand at the other elder, then immediately turned his gaze toward the direction of the spatial rift; he knew that was where the greatest threat lay.

Hiss, hiss!

The twisted space was finally completely torn apart, and figures began to file out one after another.

Leading the way were naturally Shen Luo and the Ancient Saint of Demon Flames. Following them were the Invincible Demon Saint, Overlord Demon Saint, Heavenly Incomplete Demon Saint, and two Saints from the Flame Demon Clan, along with Ye Xuan, making a total of eight people.

This time, to prevent any from slipping through the net and to completely eradicate the strongest forces of the Emperor Xi Sect, seven Saints had been mobilized in one go.

Ye Xuan, wearing a mask and clad in black, stood behind the Demon Clan’s Saints. When he saw Yuxiaozi, a trace of coldness also surfaced in his eyes.

What goes around comes around.

Seeing so many Demon Clan Saints appear one after another, the expressions of Yuxiaozi and the white-haired elder turned particularly ugly. The array before them was likely enough to completely wipe out their Emperor Xi Sect.

The Demon Clan army outside was probably led by these individuals.

"Friends from the Demon Clan, as far as I know, our Emperor Xi Sect has had no quarrels with your noble clan. Why muster such a grand force to attack our Emperor Xi Sect?"

Yuxiaozi took a deep breath, still managed a smile, and cupped his hands toward Shen Luo and the others.

"Do we need a reason for the battle between humans and demons?"

Shen Luo responded indifferently.

"This..."

Yuxiaozi and the white-haired elder had nothing to say; indeed, humans and the Demon Clan were eternal enemies, but why specifically target their Emperor Xi Sect instead of other sects? And to launch such an overwhelming assault against their Emperor Xi Sect, what had they done to provoke such a massive attack from the Demon Clan?

"Enough talk; today marks the day of the Emperor Xi Sect’s annihilation."

The eyes of the Ancient Saint of Demon Flames surged with a touch of killing intent, and then he suddenly waved his hand. Mighty magic power instantly swept across, causing a layer of ghastly blue flames that seemed to burn in the space itself. This layer of ghastly blue flame, like the fires of hell, could incinerate everything, stripping away any life.

"Destroying our Emperor Xi Sect won’t be so easy."

The expressions of Yuxiaozi and the white-haired elder darkened; they knew that reasoning with the Demon Clan was like playing a lute to a cow—they simply wouldn’t listen.

Immediately, both activated their True Yuan, entering a combat-ready state.

"Attack!"

Shen Luo waved her hand, and her figure was the first to move. With her expansive black wings unfolded behind her, a mere flicker caused the space to erupt with enormous waves, and she herself appeared right in front of Yuxiaozi and the other elder, unleashing a palm strike.

As she struck with her palm, Shen Luo’s entire arm swiftly demonized, transforming into a thick demonic arm covered with black runes, which she fiercely launched forward, directly piercing through space.

Boom!

The demonic palm reached into the space, as if disappearing, but in the next moment, it emerged from behind Yuxiaozi, and ferociously slammed into his back.

Pfft!

A mouthful of fresh blood spat out, Yuxiaozi’s defenses were shattered by the palm strike, leaving him injured.

"So powerful."

Yuxiaozi’s face was filled with shock; just one palm strike had injured him, this woman of the Demon Clan was stronger than their Supreme Elder, unfathomably so, treating the hindrance of space as nothing.

What he did not know was that Shen Luo was a sealed Ancient Saint of the Heavenly Demon Clan, an almost invincible entity during the Middle Ages, whose peak cultivation had reached the realm of the Seventh Grade Martial Saint. Although she had suffered great injuries and had not fully recovered, dealing with him—a Fifth Grade Martial Saint—was still well within her capabilities.
